Pacers' George Hill, C.J. Miles will suit up vs. Wizards

The surging Indiana Pacers will have two of their best shooters back for their tilt against the Washington Wizards.

George Hill, who missed the last three games due to a respiratory infection, and C.J. Miles, who was battling an ankle tweak, will both play in Tuesday's game, Candace Buckner of the Indy Star reports.

The Pacers have found their stride after opening the year with three straight losses. They've won eight of their last 10 games and their last two wins have come by a combined 64 points over the Philadelphia 76ers and Milwaukee Bucks.

Much of the damage has been dealt by Paul George, who looks every bit the budding superstar he was before he snapped his leg. George is averaging 34.8 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game while shooting a blistering 41.7 percent from deep.

Having Hill and Miles to spread the floor will only help the Pacers' attack. Both players are shooting over 40 percent from deep this season, and are solid two-way players in the Pacers' wing-oriented attack.
